TEMPLETES DESIGN

There's a difference between those who graciously give and receive and those who only think about it. Think about what you have to give. Giving should never be a burden. Your gift is never as genuine or as meaningful as when it is your own idea and from the heart. You can give large sums of money or you can give to someone by gracing an occasion with your presence.
Who's to say which is more useful?
Never underestimate how much you mean to someone or to others. Grace allows you to let go and cherish bonds you want to touch but not hold.

Your giving makes a difference!

One by one each act of generosity springs from a well of gratefulness for what you have received and want to pass on. Genuine giving springs from an appreciative heart.

Look to those who have given to you!

How can you emulate Him? Who can you touch?

When designing for the holidays, beautify with symbols of all representation of a lovely gracious giving life. Sharing your home and warmth.

Bring the season together with others!

Share your excitement for life and the happiness it has given you! Blessing others with the messages of the seasons joy.

Joy to your heart, family, and the world!

The Lost Art Of Gathering

We believe the most cherished moments happen when friends and family get together. In the busy lives that so many people lead, it's easy to lose sight of the opportunities to connect. Templetes is committed to a simple idea. Creating a template for sharing great food and lively conversation that shouldn't require reservations and shouldn't be reserved for holidays.

Every family has it's own traditions, and rituals, it's own ways of gathering. Sometimes the gathering has layers of meaning. At this time of year, there is something wonderful about creating large gatherings in warm, boisterous kitchens, where friends or relatives all bring a bit of their spice to the preparation of food that is spiritually nourishing for all those who eat it.

A simple art that sometimes seams lost to an earlier time, is that of sharing regular every day meals. They can be just as special if not more equally nourishing. Our hope at Templetes is to encourage more of this in your own families by giving you a little living room to relax and trust in us.
